Well I've had a busy few weeks recently but I have done my best to take part in Jen's Interiors Addict 'Interiors Photo Month' on Instagram. I am always disappointed with my photos though - I don't have an iPhone and my camera just doesn't take as nice photos, especially in my very dark house!
But here a few peeks at my week for you...
Here is my little vintage loveseat (above). The mustard yellow upholstery wasin a good condition but has been gradually looking a bit beat-up thanks to regular use and two small dogs! This is part of a three piece set I have - the loveseat, a Gentleman's wingchair (high back) and a ladies chair with a low back. The plan is to upholster them but I have never got there yet!
Above is a closeup which is a more accurate picture of the colours. I love mustard yellow but these sofas have a touch too much brown for me to really love them as they are! The throw is a black and white blanket I picked up in Morocco. They are beautiful soft wool which they use for everything from throws to rugs to table cloths.
Remember the chandelier I found all that time ago? Well I have finished spraypainting it and ended up choosing a metallic gunmetal shade. It really highlights the detail of the piece. Just waiting for the electrician to hang it for me now!
A peek at another part of my kitchen. I have been gradually adding little vignettes all around the top of my cabinets, using art and a few accessories. It looks much more homely and pretty than when it was empty!
This is my latest find; a little timber side table. It has a white top with a pressed metal edge. I think I'm going to paint the timber legs a gloss white. Oh, and the tray is sitting on the bottom ledge; not part of the table!
I haven't been sharing many photos of my house recently because I can never seem to find a space that is finished. Hopefully this will share a little more of my place until I can finally get a room completed!
If you want more sneek peeks at my place, you can find me on instagram as 'ethosdesign'.












That side table is so cute, Anna. I love it!
ReplyDeleteI hear you on the not posting too many house photos. The more I look around my house, the less finished it feels!!
Have a great week

Hi Anna....don't you just love those pieced of furniture you find and just love to death....I love the side table and putting the tray on the bottom is such a great idea as it looks amazing....xo
ReplyDeleteLove these glimpses into your home. That side table is so cute! Jxx
ReplyDeleteHaha! I caught the glimpse of the tray and I thought it is part of the table! Anyway, talking about the loveseat, mine comes in black leatherette. But I’m planning to reupholster it in brown, using brocade fabric for a change.
